Chapter 196 Want to break the ice!

“I’ve been busy with company matters these days, so I came to see you as soon as I had time today.” Lu Tianci said with a smile.

“It’s okay, Mom, this is just a small problem. You just go and do your own thing.” Zhao Rui was very considerate at this time.

Suddenly, Zhao Rui looked at the adopted son in front of her, and the more she looked, the more she felt that he was like Li Manman.

She shook her head helplessly, throwing this ridiculous idea out of her mind.

At the same time he laughed at himself, how could it be possible.

“How are things at the company going?” Zhao Rui asked.

“The first batch of shared bikes has arrived, and they are just waiting to be put offline.” Lu Tianci said with a determined look: “Mom, do you know that our shared bikes haven’t even been put offline yet, but the number of downloads of the app has already exceeded 100,000.”

When talking about this matter, Lu Tianci became very excited.

After listening to this, Zhao Rui nodded slightly. She still had great confidence in her son’s abilities.

But the current situation is not optimistic for the company.

Especially after the last scandal.

“Doesn’t your father plan to hold a press conference to explain what’s in the news?” Zhao Rui asked casually, as if they were just chatting.

“No news has been released yet. Mom, this move of yours is simply brilliant…” Lu Tianci gave Zhao Rui a thumbs up.

“Hmm? What do you mean?” Zhao Rui frowned and asked, “You don’t think I did this, do you?”

Lu Tianci asked doubtfully: “Huh? Didn’t you do it?”

Zhao Rui sneered, “I’m not that dishonest. Besides, what I want is money. What good will this do me?”

Lu Tianci immediately showed a surprised expression.

“But if it wasn’t you, then who leaked the news that Dad wanted to divorce you?”

“What’s in it for him?”

Zhao Rui was also puzzled, as only their family members knew the private affairs of their family.

It is unrealistic for them to expose it among themselves, after all, family disgrace should not be made public.

“Could it be…” Lu Tianci suddenly thought of someone, “Is it Gu Chi?”

“That rebellious son?!” Zhao Rui immediately became emotional when she heard Gu Chi’s name.

Lu Tianci quickly comforted her, “Mom, don’t be angry first, let’s think about it, maybe it wasn’t him who did it. After all, it won’t do him any good to do this.”

“He still has shares in the Lu Group. Now that the stock price continues to fall, he is also affected.”

“Although his company has grown bigger and stronger now, he doesn’t care about our small share.”

Lu Tianci exaggerated the situation. Zhao Rui took a deep breath and tried to calm down but it was of no use.

“That rebellious son just wants to watch the fun, and who knows how he is watching the fun from behind right now.”

Lu Tianci rolled his eyes and said, “Mom, I know that Brother Gu Chi has a grudge against our family, but we can’t make a move on such a big issue.”

“I really didn’t blame him for what he did before, but now, he actually went so far…”

Lu Tianci was talking in a tea-like manner, and he did not forget to observe Zhao Rui’s reaction. Looking at Zhao Rui’s angry face, he was smug in his heart, and then he said, “Mom, why don’t you talk to Brother Gu Chi and ask him to transfer the 15% of the shares to you. In this way, even if Dad divorces and does not intend to divide your property, you still have these shares as a guarantee.”

“If I were Gu Chi, I would definitely give it to you without saying anything. After all, I gave birth to him, and those shares are not very useful to him. Now Lu’s can’t give him much dividends.”

Hearing this, Zhao Rui nodded thoughtfully, “That’s right, if he really wants to, he should take the initiative to hand over his shares.”

In fact, for Zhao Rui personally, she doesn’t mind having these shares, but she just doesn’t want Lu Ziming to have an easy time.

After all, it would be very easy for Lu Ziming to have nothing to do with the company, so she had to settle for the next best thing and just asked for the money.

If Gu Chi could give her the shares, that would be perfect.

“Having said that, that rebellious son Gu Chi hates me so much now. How could he be willing to give me the shares?” Zhao Rui sighed and said with some disappointment.

When Lu Tianci heard what Zhao Rui said, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and said: “Since you know that Brother Gu Chi has a grudge against you, why don’t you find a chance to coax him?”

“Coax him? How can I coax him?” Zhao Rui asked puzzledly.

“Mom, think about it. You are his biological mother. The relationship is deeper than anyone else’s. Not to mention, Brother Gu Chi has always respected you. He also has feelings for you. If you show a little weakness, maybe he will forgive you.”

“How is it possible? That Ziti is simply heartless. He even talks about respecting me. If he respected me, our relationship wouldn’t have become so strained.” Zhao Rui looked at Lu Tianci suspiciously.

“Mom, you can go and try it. What if you succeed?” Lu Tianci smiled bitterly.

“Well… okay, I’ll go find him after I’m discharged from the hospital.”

Seeing that Zhao Rui agreed, Lu Tianci’s mouth curled up into a triumphant smile.

If you really want to take the shares back, these shares will eventually fall into your hands.

Even if the child was born safely, he would at least have shares.

Gu Chi didn’t expect to meet Zhao Rui again.

I heard Lu Meng say before that she was sick, and now it seems that she does look a little haggard.

“What are you doing here?” Gu Chi asked in a bad tone.

If it were in the past, Zhao Rui would have inevitably scolded him, but today she was unusually kind.

“Gu Chi, Mom wants to have a good chat with you. Can we find a place to sit down and talk?” Although Zhao Rui’s voice was gentle and forbearing, it was obvious that Gu Chi didn’t buy it.

“Sorry, I don’t have time.” After saying that, he was about to walk around her, but Zhao Rui’s voice rang out again behind him.

“Do you really have to make me kneel down and beg you in public?”

Hearing this, Gu Chi stopped. Although Zhao Rui’s attitude was not as tough as before, it still made him uncomfortable.

Still good at using moral kidnapping, Gu Chi adjusted his breathing, then turned around and said, “Let’s go to the tea room next door.”

After the two of them walked out of the hospital, Zhao Rui followed him into a teahouse across the street that was decorated in an antique style.

Zhao Rui ordered a pot of tea and some snacks. Gu Chi frowned as he looked at the snacks and raised his eyes to look at Zhao Rui who was sitting opposite him.

When the waiter brought it over, he also specially introduced: “The tea set is a new product just shipped from West Lake. The taste is light and pleasant. I hope you two will like it.”
